It's hard sometimes to find a bra that fits a larger breast size .....this bra is GREAT and COMFORTABLE! It fits on the sides perfect and is seam less, so it has a great look and fit. I would highly recommend this bra. And be sure to check sizing chart, cause they are sold in European sizes.
Thanks for the wonderful fit!

The Wacoal Simple Shaping Minimizer bra is the ONLY bra I wear as a size 40G woman. It is comfortable, but very supportive while minimizing at the same time. The straps are comfortable as well and stay in place. I hope they never stop making this bra!

A while back I purchased this style of bra and loved it. We saw that the same bra was available online through your company and ordered 2 more of the same style. It fits perfectly and I would recommend this bra to anyone consider buying one. The Wacoal brand is so well made. The one I purchased 1 1/2 years ago still looks brand new! Thanks so much.

This bra has a great fit and is pretty with full-coverage. It is billed as a minimizer, but my sense is that it is not necessarily so. It does look nice under clothes and gives the bust a nice shape. I would buy again.

Comfortable. Pretty. Lace is soft. Fits true to size including the cup. Comes in my hard-to-find size of 32G. Supports very well; no sagging or bouncing. Straps are comfortable. The closure is a lovely double hook/eye, instead of the usual industrial 3- or 4-hook closure. Minimizes a smidge little less than a full size. However, it's enough to make one feel and appear "normal," not like she's carrying giant sacks of sand. I'll be ordering more.

I hightly recommend this item because of the great fit and support. I prefer wide bands that stay in place. This is a true to size fit. I also will only purchase this item through bareneccesities because of the affordable price and quick shipping. Very pleased and with the support which is hard to find. I will always choose this bra.

I just purchased this bra and am so glad I did! Being very large (38G), it is hard to find good fitting bras. THIS IS ONE! It is also so pretty and what a plus that is! I am sold, sold, SOLD and will buy this bra again, again and again!

This bra definitely minimizes projection, but you would not want to wear it with a close fitting t-shirt as it pushes your breast tissue to the side and it's obvious in a knit shirt. It works great for loose fitting shirts that don't plunge low, and for button down shirts that you don't want to gap. It fits my 32DD girls accurately. There is no padding so nipples may show. Overall, a good bra to have in your arsenal for those occaisions when you want to downplay your assets.

At my chiropractor's suggestion, I've switched from underwires to wireless, for the first time. I LOVE this one! It was totally comfortable from the first moment I put it on, isn't not scratchy at all, and gives great support. It's a good minimizer, too. As big as I am, I need that in order for blouses to fit correctly. I highly recommend this bra.

Overall, I'm happy with this bra. The U-strap design keeps straps comfortably on the shoulders and supporting the weight of the breasts while, at the same time, staying neatly out of sight under T-shirts, etc. The fabric is very comfortable; it does stretch a little with wear. While the frame of the bra is excellent and offers great support, the cups themselves have nothing to contour or lift the breasts. The wider band is supportive and reduces back bulge. To be amazing, it could use contouring panels on the sides of the cups and some lift under the breast. But, as it is a wireless bra, those are challenges that come as no surprise.

This bra is very supportive, which is important since I am a 38 DDD. It does the job smoothing and minimizing. Looks great under tee shirts and light fabrics, too. Fits nicely in the back area since I a little extra there! I have purchased several of these throughout the years. Love the style. I always wait until they are on sale and pick up a beige and black.

I always do tons of research before choosing a bra. It has to be comfortable and fit properly. This bra does both and is very supportive. The only reason why it's a 4 instead of a 5 is because of the strap connecting peices. They twist and this cause skin irritation.

I came across Bare Necessities a few weeks ago and found quite a bit of cute stuff. I was skeptical to order though, I usually try on bras and swimsuits in store before I buy. But I decided to give it a try. I ordered this bra (in 36DD) as well as a shapewear thong. I will be keeping the thong, but I need to exchange the bra for a larger size. I love this bra though, the material is very comfortable, I love how it minimizes the size of my breasts. Only problem is it fit a bit tight and made my breasts into 4 smaller breasts, because of the tightness. I now need to figure out how much bigger I need to go, but I will definitely order more of these once I know my size. It's so hard to find a good strapless bra when you're busty, not to mention a minimizer. I am thrilled I came across this bra and cant wait to get the correct size.

The description refers to molded cups--they are somewhat, but they're soft fabric, not the foam lined type that looks like armor. My girls are not identically sized and the rigid cup style doesn't work for me. The cups don't have supportive slings on the buttoms & outside like other Olgas, but the support is just fine for my 36C's. As to being a minimizer--maybe not so much. I haven't actually taken measurements, but I don't think the minimizing here is as much as perhaps other Olgas. The bras don't have the look of what you might expect to find in your grandmother's drawer. One caveat--the toasted almond is closer to a brown than beige or ivory.

This bra and some others on this page are styled after what I believe to be the original style, Lilyette #0904. In my own experience none of the others do quite as well as the original. It was also available in quite a few fun colors. It has, I think, slightly thicker fabric than the bras sold here. I don't understand why it was not part of the bras on sale recently.

This is the best minimizer I have found. I am a 32 C or D depending on the bra. If you need a small band size, it's hard to find a great minimizer. This one doesn't flatten, but it does reduce. I have been buying this bra on a regular basis for a few years now, and even when I try new things, I keep going back to it.

This bra is very comfortable and supportive but the straps slide out of adjustment.

I like everything about this bra except for after adjusting the straps they slide out so that they end up too long, not giving me support after a few hours. I put safety pins to hold them so they don't do this.

I'm in love. It's sleek and sexy, yet makes sure the gals mind their own business. 36D fits like a charm, which is nice, since there's no such thing as 37C1/2. My only issue is that it doesn't come in more colors!

$13.72 on sale. This bra is comfortable and supportive. I wouldn't play sports in it but if a frisbee game broke out at a summer picnic I wouldn't hesitate to join in.
It is a large bra. My size came with four hooks. The underwire is comfortable. I usually wear my 34 bras on the outer hook until they have been washed a few times and then more to the tighter inner hooks once the bras stretch. However this bra, while fitting nicely, I must wear on the inner, smallest setting. We shall see what happens with time.

I used to wear Lilyette bras in the 1990's, when they had a line called "Full Busted, Not Full Figured" and they were extremely supportive. I'm a bigger size now and have not worn their bras in years, until this one. Pros: it's extremely supportive and very, very comfortable - it has a non-shiny, kind of peach fuzz feel to it and feels nice against the skin, and the underwire does not pinch. Cons: the diagnonal seam across each cup is very visible in clothes, even when I'm wearing a black or navy shirt. The other con is also mentioned by another reviewer - I can't hook the back while wearing it! Despite having worn it several times, I still have to hook it before putting it on, and then put it on over my head. I don't have this problem with any other bra.

This bra is so great that after trying one I ordered two more. It is supportive enough for a 36D yet stays true to the spanx mold of not showing lines in the back. It is also comfortable and does minimize.

I bought this bra at the same time as another from a favorite maker, and I'm completely in love with this one. It fit perfectly, minimizes gently, and I love the dark blue color for when straps peek out from under a wide neckline. It's really hard, as y'all know, to fit 34-36 etc. DD to DDD. So encouraged by this item, and the price was right, too.

I just switched to wireless bras, at my chiropractor's suggestion, and am pleased with how this fits, giving good support, minimizing very well, and is not scratchy. I like the model 1003 even better, but this one is perfectly satisfactory. I feel good in it.
